Yes another interesting recipe from Facebook posts. Ingredients:
vegetable oil (for frying) |
3 cups grated zucchini |
1 cup diced onion |
2 eggs |
1 cup all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon chili powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1 cup prepared mayonnaise |
1/2 lime, juice of |
1/2 teaspoon chili powder |
Directions:
1. I started by pouring the vegetable oil in my skillet so that it was half an inch deep and turned the heat to medium. Meantime, I combined the zucchini, onion, and eggs in a large bowl.
2. I gave the mixture a good stir to combine. It got all kinda frothy. Awesome.
3. Next, I combined the flour, baking powder, 1/2 tsp of chili powder, salt, and pepper in a small mixing bowl and stirred to combine. To finish the batter, I added the dry ingredients to the zucchini mixture and folded it all together.
4. To test my oil, I dipped a spoon into my batter then dipped the spoon into the oil. Once the oil bubbled in contact with the batter, I knew it was hot enough. I dropped my batter into the oil by the heaping tablespoon, frying about six fritters at a time. They cooked for 2-3 minutes a side. Once the centres were firm, I removed the fritters from the oil and let them drain on a dinner plate lined with paper towel.
5. To make the dip, I simply combined the prepared mayo, lime juice, and chili powder in a small mixing bowl and stirred it all up. This is a seriously yummy dip! I love limes. And chili powder. And mayo. So this really couldn't go wrong.
